"A Place Where You Belong"by Bullet For My Valentine

Your body's cold Hope is lost I can't let go Can I die with you so we can never grow old? Cut the ties (Cut the ties) With this note you left behind As I read the words I hear you telling me why

Too late, too late I never said goodbye Too late, too late Can't even ask you why And now I'm wasting away in my own misery I hope you've finally gone to a place where you belong

My sadness shows As your name is carved in stone Can't erase the words, so the reality grows I wish I died (I wish I died) On that night right by your side (Night right by your side) So just kill me now, let the good times roll

Too late, too late I never said goodbye Too late, too late Can't even ask you why And now I'm wasting away in my own misery I hope you've finally gone to a place where you belong

Will you wait for me? (Will you wait for me?) Will I see you on the other side? You won't have to wait too long Yeah, yeah! Will you come to me? (Will you come to me?) Will you take me to the other side? 'Cause here I don't belong!

Too late, too late I never said goodbye Too late, too late Can't even ask you why And now I'm wasting away in my own misery I hope you've finally gone to a place where you belong

I never said goodbye Can't even ask you why (I've wasted) Away in my own misery I hope you've finally gone to a place where you belong

The Meaning of "A Place Where You Belong":This song is--quite obviously--about a boy who's lover committed suicide. The reason I love this song is not so much the meaning itself, but the quality of the song and of the raw emotion the lyrics has. When I hear the lines dripping with emotional agony so thoughtfully written such as "now I'm wasting away in my own misery," "My sadness shows as your name is carved in stone," and "Cut the ties with this note you left behind as I read the words I hear you telling me why." Something about this song just really hits me in the gut and I really wanted to share it. This song is also notable because it's a soft and melodious song written by BFMV! That doesn't happen a lot.
